and romances. Modern Shanghai also ranks among the first three Chinese
cities in regard to the number of single people. However, it's not hard
to find a date in Shanghai if you know where to look. . The endless array
of winding lanes, various chic eateries and bars as well as pioneering
galleries and show houses are all testaments to Shanghai's unfading
romantic possibilities.

Modern Shanghai has nine famous CBDs (Central Business District) , each
with some romantic spots with unique features. Go and check them out to
find the spot that suits your taste.


Henglong Square CBD area

Given that many top-class office buildings are crowded in Henglong, the
easiest place to find for a romantic meeting is the office lift, and the
prime time is after office hours, when the only people in the building
are those doing overtime.

People usually go to the same coffee shop at the same time every day. As
the most tasteful coffee shop in Shanghai, Starbucks plays host to almost
all the elites of various industries in Shanghai. (Location: No.1168,
